YOUR EXPERIENCE
Departure: Old Port of Marseille
Opening hours: 9:30am-5:30pm
Duration: 8 hours
Period: May to September
Departing from Marseille’s Old Port, step aboard our maxi-catamaran Samba for an exceptional day at sea, combining sailing, exclusive anchorage stops and spectacular panoramas, in one of the Mediterranean’s most iconic natural treasures: the Calanques National Park.
Your adventure begins in the heart of the Phocaean city, within the historic and vibrant setting of the Old Port. Watched over by Fort Saint-Jean and Fort Saint-Nicolas, the catamaran leaves the harbour and follows the coastline towards Cap Croisette and Maïre Island, revealing breathtaking views of deep-blue waters and limestone reliefs sculpted by wind and waves.
A first anchorage in the Calanque of Sormiou marks the highlight of the morning. Crystal-clear waters, towering cliffs and a peaceful atmosphere create a truly spectacular setting. On board, you fully enjoy the moment: relaxing on deck, snorkelling, paddleboarding to explore the bay… An aperitif (Planter’s punch) is served, followed by a buffet lunch, to be enjoyed facing this extraordinary landscape.
The afternoon continues with a gentle cruise along the calanques of Morgiou and Sugiton, offering striking viewpoints over these emblematic sites, before setting course for the Riou Archipelago, a protected natural reserve. Accessible only by sea, this biodiversity sanctuary is home to numerous marine species and seabirds.
A second anchorage, in the Calanque of Monastério, punctuates the day. Here, time slows down. Farniente, contemplation, paddleboarding or simply the pleasure of being at sea… Nature reigns supreme. Let yourself be lulled by the calls of seabirds, admire the purity of the landscape and simply relax.
The catamaran then begins its return journey, sailing past the wild islands of Jarre and Maïre, revealing a coastline that remains untouched and preserved. On board, savour the final moments of calm, gently rocked by the sea.
Blending sailing, discovery, relaxation and gourmet pleasures, this full-day cruise offers a complete immersion in the Calanques National Park, for a sea experience that is both deeply refreshing and truly unforgettable.
